 Firefox allows you to access various sub-sections of the various pages in
 about:preferences by accessing urls in the form
 about:preferences#$(pane)-$(section). Ie, to access the Privacy -> Reports
 section you can navigate to: about:preferences#privacy-reports

 In latest version of vanilla Firefox this navigates to the Privacy pane
 and then scrolls down to the Reports section. In Tor Browser, it only
 navigates to the Privacy pane, without scrolling down the the Reports
 section.

 This feature is required for the 'Advanced Security Settings...' button to
 work correctly in the new security UI.

 The relevant place to start looking is in the init_all() and gotoPref()
 methods in /browser/components/preferences/in-content/preferences.js
